[PATCH] [crypto] XTS: use proper alignment v2

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The XTS blockmode uses a copy of the IV which is saved on the stack
and may or may not be properly aligned. If it is not, it will break
hardware cipher like the geode or padlock.
This patch encrypts the IV in place so we don't have to worry about
alignment.

Herbert, I tried the small patch thing :)
It passed tcrypt on my geode, dunno about dm-crypt & friends.
Stefan if you could test it with dm-crypt than we have a small fix :)
